Description

L'invention concerne le domaine des équipements hospitaliers pour nouveau-nés. Elle concerne plus particulièrement un dispositif de couverture pour couveuse de nouveau-nés.The invention relates to the field of hospital equipment for newborns. It relates more particularly to a covering device for incubator of newborns.

Les nouveau-nés et plus particulièrement les nouveau-nés prématurés et les nouveau-nés malades nécessitent des soins particuliers. Ils sont généralement gardés sous surveillance dans des couveuses appelées aussi incubateurs dans un environnement dont la température et d'autres données physiques telle que l'hygrométrie sont précisément contrôlées.Newborns, especially premature newborns and sick newborns, require special care. They are generally kept under surveillance in incubators also called incubators in an environment whose temperature and other physical data such as hygrometry are precisely controlled.

Les couveuses sont généralement transparentes et par conséquent la luminosité est un paramètre physique plus difficilement contrôlable.The incubators are generally transparent and consequently the luminosity is a physical parameter more difficult to control.

Selon les unités de soins, la luminosité peut être trop importante ou au contraire insuffisante. En effet, les couveuses sont soit complètement occultées par des dispositifs couvrants soit laissées telles quelles à la lumière de la pièce.Depending on the care unit, the brightness may be too high or insufficient. Indeed, the incubators are either completely obscured by covering devices or left as they are in the light of the room.

Il peut en résulter des perturbations du développement visuel par une stimulation lumineuse excessive ou des perturbations de l'établissement du rythme nycthéméral indispensable à la mise en place des cycles hormonaux physiologiques par une stimulation lumineuse insuffisante.This can result in disturbances in visual development by excessive light stimulation or disturbances in the establishment of the nycthemeral rhythm essential for the establishment of physiological hormonal cycles by insufficient light stimulation.

De plus, l'occultation totale de la couveuse entraine des manipulations plus fréquentes de l'environnement lors de l'accès à l'enfant pour les soins, ce qui est de nature à augmenter les risques d'infections secondaires.In addition, the total concealment of the incubator leads to more frequent handling of the environment during access to the child for care, which is likely to increase the risk of secondary infections.

Les impératifs de surveillance par le personnel en charge des soins et la nécessité de garder un contact visuel spontané pour la relation parents-enfant sont aussi des paramètres qui entrent en jeu dans le contrôle de la luminosité.The requirements of surveillance by the staff in charge of care and the need to maintain spontaneous eye contact for the parent-child relationship are also parameters that come into play in the control of brightness.

Des solutions techniques sont déjà connues mais elles ne répondent que partiellement aux problèmes posés.Technical solutions are already known but they only partially answer the problems posed.

Par exemple, le certificat d'utilité TWM 455489 U propose un dispositif couvrant total dans lequel est ménagée une possibilité d'ouverture sur le dessus. Ce dispositif permet d'établir un contact visuel simplifié entre le personnel soignant et le nouveau-né lorsque le dessus est ouvert mais d'une part, trop peu de lumière peut pénétrer la couveuse et d'autre part, une relation spontanée entre parents et enfant ne peut être établie. La demande de brevet US 2006 0079730 propose une solution similaire avec des inconvénients identiques.For example, the utility certificate TWM 455489 U proposes a total covering device in which is provided a possibility of opening on the top. This device makes it possible to establish a simplified visual contact between the nursing staff and the newborn when the top is open but on the one hand, too little light can penetrate the incubator and on the other hand, a spontaneous relationship between parents and child can not be established. The patent application US 2006 0079730 proposes a similar solution with identical disadvantages.

Les nouveau-nés prématurés sont très sensibles à leur environnement. Un environnement hospitalier, malgré les soins attentifs du personnel, peut entrainer un manque de stimulations nécessaire au développement. Parmi celles-ci peut se trouver un manque de stimulation visuelle.Premature newborns are very sensitive to their environment. A hospital environment, in spite of the attentive care of the staff, can lead to a lack of stimulation necessary for the development. Among these may be a lack of visual stimulation.

C'est ainsi qu'une stimulation visuelle particulière adaptée peut les aider à développer leur fonction visuelle.This is how a particular visual stimulation adapted can help them develop their visual function.

La présente invention a donc pour objet de proposer de nouveaux moyens afin de répondre aux inconvénients de l'art antérieur. Il s'agit plus particulièrement de proposer un dispositif de couverture pour couveuse de nouveau-né comportant un sens longitudinal caractérisé en ce qu'une de ses extrémités, dans le sens longitudinal, est de largeur d'au moins deux fois supérieure à sa largeur à son extrémité opposée ; et qu'au moins dans la partie médiane de sa largeur la plus importante, elle est prolongée d'un rabat longitudinal.The present invention therefore aims to propose new means to meet the disadvantages of the prior art. It is more particularly to propose a covering device for neonatal incubator having a longitudinal direction characterized in that one of its ends, in the longitudinal direction, is at least twice as wide in width at its opposite end; and that at least in the middle part of its largest width, it is extended by a longitudinal flap.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description détaillée qui va suivre se rapportant à un exemple de réalisation donné à titre indicatif et non limitatif.Other features and advantages of the present invention will appear on reading the following detailed description relating to an exemplary embodiment given by way of indication and not limitation.

La compréhension de cette description sera facilitée en se référant aux dessins joints, dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 représente schématiquement un dispositif de couverture selon l'invention ;
  • la figure 2 représente schématiquement un dispositif de cible selon l'invention ;
  • la figure 3 représente schématiquement une vue du dispositif de couverture disposé sur une couveuse.
The understanding of this description will be facilitated with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
  • the figure 1 schematically represents a covering device according to the invention;
  • the figure 2 schematically represents a target device according to the invention;
  • the figure 3 schematically represents a view of the cover device disposed on an incubator.

Ainsi et tel que visible sur les figures 1 à 3, la présente invention concerne tout d'abord un dispositif de couverture 1 pour couveuse de nouveau-né comportant un sens longitudinal caractérisé en ce qu'une de ses extrémités 2, dans le sens longitudinal, est de largeur d'au moins deux fois supérieure à sa largeur à son extrémité opposée 3 ; et qu'au moins dans la partie médiane de sa largeur la plus importante, elle est prolongée d'un rabat longitudinal 4.So and as visible on the Figures 1 to 3 the present invention relates first of all to a covering device 1 for a neonatal incubator having a longitudinal direction, characterized in that one of its ends 2, in the longitudinal direction, is at least twice as wide in width at its width at its opposite end 3; and that at least in the middle part of its largest width, it is extended by a longitudinal flap 4.

Le dispositif de couverture 1 est généralement disposé sur le dessus d'une couveuse avec son extrémité 2 la plus large disposée au-dessus de la tête du nouveau-né. La plus grande largeur du dispositif de couverture 1 formant des rabats latéraux 20 tombant sur les côtés de la couveuse.The covering device 1 is generally disposed on the top of an incubator with its widest end 2 disposed above the head of the newborn. The largest width of the cover device 1 forming side flaps 20 falling on the sides of the incubator.

De cette manière, le dispositif de couverture 1 peut former une housse quand il est disposé sur le dessus d'une couveuse.In this way, the cover device 1 can form a cover when it is disposed on the top of an incubator.

Les rabats 4 et 20 permettent de protéger l'enfant d'une exposition directe à la lumière tout en évitant qu'il soit dans une pénombre totale. Cet accès à une lumière indirecte facilite la mise en place du rythme nycthéméral favorisant ainsi l'installation des cycles endocriniens.The flaps 4 and 20 protect the child from direct exposure to light while avoiding it in total darkness. This access to indirect light facilitates the establishment of the nycthéméral rhythm thus favoring the installation of endocrine cycles.

De plus, l'enfant restant accessible à la vue extérieure par l'extrémité 3 la plus étroite du dispositif de couverture 1, les soignants peuvent contrôler son comportement, en complément du monitorage automatisé.In addition, the child remaining accessible to the outside view by the narrowest end 3 of the cover device 1, caregivers can control its behavior, in addition to automated monitoring.

L'extrémité 3 la plus étroite du dispositif de couverture 1 peut être aisément repliable pour un accès à l'ouverture de la couveuse.The narrowest end 3 of the cover device 1 can be easily folded for access to the opening of the incubator.

Les parents ont un accès visuel direct à leur enfant sans obstacle interposé.Parents have direct visual access to their child without interfering.

Le dispositif de couverture 1 respectant l'accès aux hublots de soins latéraux, il diminue les manipulations intempestives et excessives. Avantageusement, le dispositif de couverture 1 est symétrique par rapport à un plan longitudinal.The covering device 1 respecting the access to the side care windows, it reduces unwanted manipulation and excessive. Advantageously, the covering device 1 is symmetrical with respect to a longitudinal plane.

Cette symétrie permet un positionnement aisé sur le dessus de la couveuse.This symmetry allows easy positioning on the top of the incubator.

Préférentiellement, le dispositif de couverture 1 comporte une bande médiane 10 rectangulaire prolongée latéralement, à l'extrémité de plus grande largeur par des rabats latéraux 20 s'étendant au moins sur un tiers de la longueur du dispositif de couverture 1.Preferably, the cover device 1 comprises a rectangular central band 10 extended laterally, at the end of greater width by lateral flaps 20 extending at least over a third of the length of the cover device 1.

Les rabats 4 et 20 peuvent être de n'importe quelle forme. Ils peuvent être attachés les uns aux autres par des systèmes conventionnels tels que des agrafes, des attaches de type bande autoagrippante, ou être cousus entre eux.The flaps 4 and 20 can be of any shape. They can be attached to each other by conventional systems such as staples, hook-and-loop fasteners, or sewn together.

Selon un mode particulier de réalisation de l'invention, le dispositif de couverture 1 est de forme triangulaire au sommet tronqué comportant une bande médiane 10 rectangulaire prolongée latéralement de rabats latéraux 20 de forme triangulaire.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the covering device 1 is triangular in shape with a truncated apex comprising a rectangular median strip 10 extended laterally of lateral flaps 20 of triangular shape.

La vision est un sens qui n'est pas complètement bien développé au stade prénatal et qui se trouve à l'état brut à la naissance. En environnement hospitalier, les nouveau-nés prématurés peuvent manquer de stimulation visuelle. Cette carence peut avoir des conséquences à long terme sur le développement.Vision is a meaning that is not fully developed at the prenatal stage and is in a raw state at birth. In a hospital setting, premature newborns may lack visual stimulation. This deficiency can have long-term consequences for development.

C'est pourquoi une stimulation visuelle particulière adaptée à leur maturation peut les aider à développer plus facilement leur fonction visuelle.This is why a particular visual stimulation adapted to their maturation can help them to develop their visual function more easily.

L'invention concerne ainsi aussi un dispositif de cible visuelle 5 adaptée aux nouveau-nés caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte une série de bandes longitudinales 50, parallèles et de couleurs différentes.The invention thus also relates to a visual target device 5 adapted to neonates, characterized in that it comprises a series of longitudinal strips 50, parallel and of different colors.

Un tel dispositif de cible 5 peut donc être réalisé indépendamment du dispositif de couverture 1. Il peut être réalisé par exemple sur le couvercle d'une couveuse.Such a target device 5 can therefore be produced independently of the cover device 1. It can be made for example on the cover of an incubator.

De façon avantageuse, le dispositif de couverture 1 sert de support d'un dispositif de cible visuelle 5 pour le regard d'un nouveau-né.Advantageously, the cover device 1 serves as a support for a visual target device 5 for the gaze of a newborn.

Le dispositif de cible visuelle 5 comprend un motif particulier et peut être associé à la partie du dispositif de couverture 1 faisant face au regard du nouveau-né.The visual target device 5 comprises a particular pattern and may be associated with the portion of the covering device 1 facing the newborn.

L'avantage d'un tel dispositif de cible 5 est son fonctionnement de type passif. Il permet une stimulation visuelle du nouveau-né pendant ses phases de réveil qui sont intermittentes.The advantage of such a target device 5 is its passive type operation. It allows visual stimulation of the newborn during waking phases that are intermittent.

Sa présence particulière sur le dispositif de couverture 1 permet une stimulation régulière, intermittente selon la disponibilité de l'enfant et non imposée, indépendamment de toute action du personnel soignant.Its particular presence on the cover device 1 allows a regular stimulation, intermittent according to the availability of the child and not imposed, regardless of any action of the caregiver.

Un autre avantage à sa présence sur le dispositif de couverture 1 est la facilité à le retirer quand il y a un besoin de contrôler le nouveau-né à travers le couvercle ou la partie supérieure de la couveuse ou mettre en place un dispositif de soins comme une photothérapie par exemple.Another advantage to its presence on the cover device 1 is the ease of removing it when there is a need to control the newborn through the lid or the upper part of the incubator or to set up a care device like a phototherapy for example.

De façon préférentielle, ledit dispositif de cible 5 comporte une série de bandes longitudinales 50 dans le sens longitudinal dudit dispositif de couverture 1, parallèles et de couleurs différentes.Preferably, said target device 5 comprises a series of longitudinal strips 50 in the longitudinal direction of said cover device 1, parallel and of different colors.

Les couleurs différentes peuvent être contrastées.Different colors can be contrasted.

De façon générale, les dessins de bandes ou de lignes parallèles ayant des couleurs contrastées attirent l'attention des nouveau-nés.In general, strip or parallel line drawings with contrasting colors attract the attention of newborns.

Selon un autre mode particulier de réalisation, lesdites bandes 50 ont des largeurs différentes.According to another particular embodiment, said strips 50 have different widths.

Selon encore un autre mode de réalisation, lesdites bandes 50 et 501 situées dans la partie la plus médiane de ladite cible sont de largeur plus grande que celles 50 et 502 situées à la périphérie.According to yet another embodiment, said strips 50 and 501 located in the most median portion of said target are of greater width than those 50 and 502 located at the periphery.

De manière avantageuse, ladite série de bandes longitudinales 50 présente un axe médian de symétrie orienté selon la longueur desdites bandes 50.Advantageously, said series of longitudinal strips 50 has a median axis of symmetry oriented along the length of said strips 50.

Cette organisation particulière a pour avantage d'augmenter l'intérêt du nouveau-né pour le dispositif et de fixer son attention plus intensément favorisant ainsi le développement de sa discrimination visuelle.This particular organization has the advantage of increasing the interest of the newborn for the device and to fix his attention more intensely favoring the development of his visual discrimination.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le dispositif de couverture 1 comporte des moyens d'occultation de la lumière dont la longueur d'onde est inférieure à 650 nm.According to a preferred embodiment, the covering device 1 comprises means for occulting the light whose wavelength is less than 650 nm.

Les longueurs d'ondes supérieures à 650 nm comprennent la lumière visible et surtout les ultra-violets particulièrement dangereux pour la rétine.Wavelengths greater than 650 nm include visible light and especially ultraviolet light, which is particularly dangerous for the retina.

Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, le dispositif de couverture 1 comporte des moyens de filtration des ondes sonores.According to an advantageous embodiment, the cover device 1 comprises means for filtering the sound waves.

Le système auditif des nouveau-nés et prématurés est très sensible. Des moyens de filtration des ondes sonores tels qu'une structure alvéolaire située dans l'épaisseur du matériau ou un matériau doublé et matelassé, composant le dispositif 1 permet une atténuation du bruit environnant.The auditory system of newborns and premature babies is very sensitive. Filtration means for sound waves such as a honeycomb structure located in the thickness of the material or a doubled and quilted material, making up the device 1 allows attenuation of the surrounding noise.
